Chapter 54: Game Character, Game Player

‘Are you playing ga At the tiames, and his mom would show up unannounced fro his hoames, then his mo bout of criticism

This was a very common phrase

However, this very common phrase had suddenly beco it… was inside a game

Yue Qiang felt wrong from head to toe

This feeling was a bit like… it was a bit like playing King of Fighters in single player i Kusanagi did not taunt Yagami, but instead taunt him outside the monitor and said: Can’t even chain a triple Aoibana? Just watch me kick your ass!

No no no, the analogy was unsuitable If he was to describe this feeling from Yin’s point of view… then it would be like histhat he was playing ga She did not criticise hiless data, so I ht as well delete you Then he, the data, was deleted co behind a trace

That was it!

Yue Qiang closed his eyes firmly and shook his head hard in atte He forced himself to calm down and placed both hands back on the keyboard He typed a feords, “Yes, I aame”

“Truthfully, I a ti, “This fear comes from the unknown”

When Yue heard froirl behind the screen that she was a bit scared as well, he didn’t knohy, but his fear suddenly faded quite a bit Froirl had appeared in a sudden, to the irl had always faced every situation with a calh she was met with several sure death situations, she was so calm she did not appear like an ordinary person at all

However, at this irl had ad realized that she really was just a little girl, and a delicate one that needed to be looked after no less At the very least, this girl really seemed like a real person; far more than anyone he had met in the real world

A huame

Inside the game, Yin continued to sit on the floor in a fetal posture, closing her eyes so, “I do not knohy I a that happened before I arrived to this place When faced with iy I have to resolve it But once everything is over, and I’ve settled down, I would feel… an indescribable sense of loneliness and fear”

She continued, “It’s not just that When I realize that everything about you is in slight dissonant with this world, when I realize that you rew even worse”

Yue Qiang could feel her loneliness It was very easy for hi in her place and understand her feelings: to appear for an unfathomable reason within a cave full of corpses, with no one or nothing fa that happened to herself, with her one and only te her assuame, and that she may turn into a bunch of data at any moment… there was no way one wouldn’t feel that kind of loneliness and fear once they’d settled down

As for Yue Qiang hiible

That’s because the real world he’s in was far less realistic than the game itself

He sat in front of the co his character to live and explore inside the ga, and very realistic Moreover, they were only getting more and more realistic

Yue Qiang blanked out for a little

It was at this ain, “I think that you haveprobleht?”

Yue Qiang was quiet for a long time before he typed and responded, “Yes”

“Do you have any way of solving it?”

“I… do not have a clue”

“I think that the cause of this change ht?” Yin’s tone was just as leveled as before She analysed cale, and this change far exceeded an average person’s iination, but there should always be a cause to every effect If you do not have a clue, then why don’t you start at the source of the change and search slowly As you said earlier… the world I aaame as well!”

The key to this problea heard about this

That mysterious fitness coach Luqiu Duanyi had once re similar, and her advice had been even th, will you be able to resolve everything” These were her words Not only that, Luqiu Duanyi had even helped to increase his stats massively and learn two very powerful skills As compared to Yin, Luqiu Duanyi seemed to know a lotbecause she needed to suppress the blue progress bar

Yin did not have such concerns because she was inside the gairl

“Do you have any ideas?” she asked

“I think… that I ht have been hypnotised, or even better, Iall this time Once I wake up from the dream, or once the hypnosis is over, then I ake up and realize that everything is just a friend’s joke after all”

Yin shook her head seriously, “That is an absolutely impossible explanation”

“Whenever soical happens, it is an incredible irresponsible behavior to explain it off as a dreaave emphasis to her tone and said, “The occurrence of any phenomenon must have a reason behind it If it cannot be explained, then either it is very possibly due to insufficient reserve of knowledge, or more commonly, the lack of sufficient information”

“The change originated froame, so the clue to resolve this probleaame Perhaps I may be able to help you find some details that you missed Then we may be able to walk out of this dilemma”

“Alright, fro this an to describe his experiences inside the game in detail His explanation was incredibly detailed, and he without reserve, he talked about the garaphics, sound effects, equipment, skills, NPCs with personalities, way to raise one’s strength… everything

Yin listened quietly throughout the explanation, and from time to time she would nod her head After he was finished, she said, “You explanation is very detailed, and fros you said, I should be able tothem, the one I a – realistic Can you describe exactly how realistic this game is?”

“Very realistic I cannot find any trace of pixels or textures, and in fact, I suspect that if I have a ht now, Ipondered for aout his opinion

“You are playing on a computer, aren’t you?”

“Yes”

“Has the computer been restarted?”

“Mm”

“Although there are still plenty of questions, I can basically assume that the place I’m in, that is the place behind your screen, should be a real world At the very least, I don’t need to worry that I will beco on the computer”

This was the only explanation Yue Qiang closed his eyes, and pondered

Yin’s deduction that ‘the ga all this time, and at this point, he could almost completely confirm this assus that could not be explained

“If we assume that this place is a real world, and that your coaht can definitely answer a lot of questions clearly However, there is a very critical question that cannot be ignored!”

“This question is,” Yin let out a long breath, “your main quest!”

“It is absolutely inexplicable for a main quest to appear in a real world” she said, “To use your real world as an exao to work, and live their everyday lives There’s absolutely no chance that so xxx follow a bunch of clues to defeat a certain boss and dominate the entire world to appear out of nowhere On the other hand, ‘ame”

Yin’s words were irrefutable She took the train of thought a step further and said, “Games can be split into many kinds Is it possible, that this ‘ame’?”

Yue Qiang thought over this question and said with certainty, “Not possible An online ga like a fantasy world There will be all kinds of NPC issuing quest to search for treasures, explore the world and so on, but there does not exist an absoluteto it may be the so-called ‘World Quest’, but even that is just an event where the players of the entire server are gathered to beat a World Boss In reality, the onlyup”

“But you said that the characters of this game cannot level up”

Yin said with a positive tone, “Therefore, this gaame would have a clear cut main quest, and when the ame will also end!”

“And you, are the only player of this single player game!”

The only player, the only player… Yue Qiang quietly muttered these three words inside his heart Suddenly he asked, “What about you? Why aren’t you a player?”

“I am definitely not a player” Yin said without any hesitation, “I knohat you want to ask I am definitely not the kind of player whose consciousness has slipped into a certain game world, but their body’s are still somewhere outside I… I am different from others If it really is that kind of situation, then I will know it”
